w...e....l.l....
best layed plans of mice and men?
But, I do have a plan ....
if all else fails, I have some civil war blocks to put up, but for right now, I am working on Cutebun's mini mystery to make it right ... as soon as it is done, I will take a pic and tell me what you think <g>
Then, I just printed out some triangulations for two inch HST (finished) and want to play with that for an hour or two.
I have completed blocks finished, but want to see if I can't make these things work ...
oh! the life of the overactive minded, creative twit! LOL
y'all just have no idea how difficult it is to have so many choices!
Am SERIOUSLY considering taking all those carpenter's wheels I made and send them ... on the other hand <g>
I could take all my two inch cut squares and just toss them in the air and make a totally scrappy thing ...
did you really want to know??? LOL

I believe this is the one I am going to send around the world, since one of my northern neighbors developed the technique, it is only fitting that we all add to her mini mystery effort.
What do you think?

frankly ... it looks really good, if you are in a second room, looking at a thirty two degree angle sideways, and fifteen degrees lower ... hmmm....
may have to rethink this <g>...

Hi, Omak, glad to have you around this post and I think it looks great to me, and I am not standing on my head, or squinting without my glasses on either! Pop it in the post tomorrow, and send it on its way. I sent mine to Elle as of 3.30 this afternoon, waving it good bye on its long journey.

One inch ... before I sewed them into the blocks. Each "HST" is between three 1/4" and three inches.
The piece measures 21x19 inches.
the outside borders are one inch on the sides and 2 1/2" top and bottom.

I think it looks great and I can't wait to see it "in person" so that I can start plotting a border for it. I love the blues, reds & whites and the little dash of yellow really pulls it all together beautifully.
